Adding extensions to Squarespace is a breeze!

There are two ways to add extensions to your Squarespace site:

1. Use the Extension Marketplace

The Extension Marketplace is a great way to add features and functionality to your site. To access the Extension Marketplace, log in to your site and go to Settings > Extensions. From there, you can browse the available extensions and install them with just a few clicks.

2. Install custom code

If you’re a developer or you’re comfortable working with code, you can install custom code on your site. This could be HTML, CSS, JavaScript, or anything else that you can code. To install custom code, log in to your site and go to Settings > Advanced > Code Injection. From there, you can add your code to the appropriate fields.

Adding extensions with the Extension Marketplace is easy!

Just follow these steps:

PRO TIP: If you are not familiar with code or website design, we recommend that you do not attempt to add extensions to your Squarespace site. Hiring a professional to complete this task is always the best option to avoid any potential problems.

  2. Browse through the available extensions. When you find one that you want to use, click on the “Install” button.

  3. Follow the prompts to complete the installation process.

  4. (Optional) If you want to make sure that the extension is working properly, you can test it out by going to “Settings > Extensions > Test Mode”. This will allow you to test out extensions without actually installing them on your live site.
